dang, the headline is "The city with no homeless on its streets", which is clickbaity and vague, but the current link title is hard to understand. Could we maybe compromise with "Homelessness has almost been eradicated in Helsinki?"
It doesn’t just mean sleeping outside - this is a common misconception.
At least for me, when I hear the word homeless I first think of someone living on the streets. We don't have exact equivalent to rough sleeping in the U.S. that I can readily think of.
I don't see anything user-unfriendly about using the phrase "rough sleeping". Remember that this is a site for gratifying curiosity. Encountering a phrase you haven't heard before is an opportunity to be curious. Plus it's good for HN readers to have to work a little. https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme...
